The group collected 20 bags of rubbish during the much-needed refresh.

McDonald’s franchisee Perry Akhtar said: “I was really proud to see everyone come together and help give Wellingborough Embankment a much needed spruce up.

“It’s a key priority of ours to ensure that the local area remains free of litter and an enjoyable place to live, work and visit. As a business we understand the important role that we play in making the area a cleaner place for everyone.”

Putting his support behind the clean-up event, MP for Wellingborough Peter Bone said: “It’s fantastic to see local businesses like McDonald’s getting involved with looking after the community. I’d like to offer a huge thanks to Perry and his team, alongside all the volunteers, for their hard work and commitment to Wellingborough.”
